Sadako Throws Opening Pitch at Japanese Baseball Game

Hey, just because she’s a vengeful spirit in badly need of a hair salon appointment, it doesn’t mean Sadako of the “Ringu” films fame doesn’t enjoy a nice ballgame every once in a while. Hotdogs and crackerjacks and all that. And if the teams happen to ask her to throw out the first pitch, then all the better! I wonder who vengeful undead spirits root for, though?

It’s one of those questions that we’ll probably never get an answer to. Until then, check out Sadako herself on the pitcher’s mound throwing out the first pitch in a baseball game between the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters and Chiba Lotte Marines teams of Japan’s Pacific League. (Go Ham Fighters!) The actress/vengeful killer spirit was there to promote her upcoming “Sadako 3D” movie, the latest entry in the “Ringu” series.

I like that she even shakes off a couple of pitch signals. That’s awesome.

“Sadako 3D” crawls into your nightmares May 12, 2012 in Japan. You’ll just have to wait for the import DVD if you want to see it Stateside.
